The Crippled Boss Loves Me

809 Let’s See Who is Here

Ji Qian wanted to say that she wasn’t tired and wanted to go and look at grandma as well. However, when her gaze met Ji Yan’s dark eyes, she could only pout her lips unhappily and thought, “Alright, big brother now thinks that they, as younger brothers and sisters, are an eyesore.” When he took their dating guide back then, he didn’t despise them for being an eyesore and threw them away after using them. Big brother was too good at making use of them!

Ji Qian swallowed her words and said in displeasure, “Sister-in-law, see you later.” After that, she walked away without looking at Ji Yan.

“It seems that big brother doesn’t need us now.” Ji Mo’s lips curled up, and his small face was filled with emotion. “We’re so pitiful. He threw us away after using us.”

Shen Hanxing turned to look at Ji Mo curiously. Ji Yan coughed and looked at Ji Mo with a warning gaze. “Cut the crap. Quickly go in and take the food to the kitchen.”

Ji Mo was not afraid. He chuckled and shook his head before slowly carrying his things and leaving. Other than all kinds of fun activities, there was also a green vegetable greenhouse. They had brought back many ingredients they had picked personally and the fish they had caught. This time, it could be said that they had returned home with a full load. They would let grandma have a taste of the fruits of their labor.

Ji Ning covered her mouth and snickered. Then, she appeased Ji Yan. “Big brother, don’t be angry. Ji Qian and Ji Mo like you, so they are only joking.”

“I know. You should go too,” Ji Yan said unhappily.

Ji Ning knew that Ji Yan wasn’t outraged, so she smiled and shyly waved at the two of them. Then, she followed Ji Mo and Ji Qian’s footsteps. Ji Yan was angry and amused as he watched them enter the door one after another. “This group of little bastards.” It was not until he had more contact with his younger brothers and sisters that he gradually understood the joy of being an elder brother. Seeing them go from being in awe of him and only daring to look at him from afar to even daring to tease him, he also had a different feeling in his heart. Was this what family was?

Shen Hanxing smiled faintly. She did not interfere with Ji Yan’s interaction with the siblings or ask anything. She simply brought Ji Yan along with her to find her grandma.

“That’s pretty good.” Grandma’s laughter was very loving. No one knew who she was talking to. They heard her saying, “It’s good that you’re happy. You’ve become more cheerful recently. This is good. This job suits you very well.”

Was there an outsider? Shen Hanxing was slightly surprised. She turned along the path and saw her grandma watering the vegetable garden with a watering can. Her eyebrows were relaxed, and every wrinkle on her face was spread out, making Shen Hanxing feel at ease. On the other side was Qiao Xi, who was dressed simply and elegantly with a smile. She stepped on the ground barefoot, ignoring the soil and bending over to pull out the weeds in the garden. Her fair face was full of smiles, and she was talking to her grandma about something.

Qiao Xi seemed to have changed a lot during this time. She looked more capable and confident and didn’t mind working in the vegetable field with her sleeves rolled up. She didn’t look like the weak and self-abased person she used to be. When did she come here? Shen Hanxing was a little surprised. She raised her voice and said, “Grandma, we’re back.”

“Hanxing?” Grandma raised her head in surprise. When she saw Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan, her face bloomed joyfully. “How’s your trip? Look who’s here!”

Qiao Xi did not expect Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan to show up so suddenly. She looked up and saw Shen Hanxing, who was still as beautiful as ever, and Ji Yan, tall and handsome, standing beside her. Her body froze subconsciously, and she rolled her sleeve down almost reflexively to cover her arm tightly. She rubbed the dirt off her hands in a disheveled manner. It was so dirty. How could she appear in front of Ji Yan in such a messy state?

Qiao Xi tried to rub the dirt off her hands until her skin was red, but they were still dirty and could not be cleaned, no matter how hard she tried. Her eyes turned red instantly, and she wished she could hide from Ji Yan. She did not want to appear in front of him in such an ugly and disheveled state. She even imagined Ji Yan staring at her dirty fingers with arrogance and disdain in his eyes. Such an image almost made Qiao Xi cry on the spot. She felt inferior. Why? Why could she never stand in front of him in one piece? Why was she always like a clown, always in a pathetic state?

Qiao Xi clenched her fists and put her hands behind her back as if that would cover up the marks on her hands. She lowered her head and dared not look at Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan.
